Fabulous box, Debi/Rachelle! Although I will say Chevie kind of looks like he's thinking 'but where's something I can play with?' LOL.

What wonderful gifts, Deb!!! Sassy can't take pictures, so mine will have to do :D . My Secret Sis was Pam....very cool goodies :cool5:

:greenbounce: Here we go... oh my!! Distress oxide inks and such wonderful colors. Lucky Clover (I'll say!), Peacock Feathers, Abandoned Coral, Picked Raspberry, Candied Apple, Twisted Citron, Fossilized Amber, and Wilted Violet. But wait, there's so much more... :greenbounce: Nuvo Glitter drops - blue lagoon and sherbert shimmer - 4 mini ink blenders, Ghirardelli milk chocolate caramel snowmen (1 is already MIA, lol), a jar of fabulous smelling seasoning (we'll be grilling tonight!) and a beautiful Christmas card and tags. Thank you so much my dear friend :happy94: . Every gift is perfect and so very generous of you. What a wonderful box to receive and enjoy. Pictures are coming - you know it will take me a minute (or 5) to get them posted.
Merry Christmas to you all, safe travels and good memories to share!! Love ya...Cheryl
Find time each day to rejoice in the journey...

Chevie did perk up when she sniffed the tin of tea... but then lost interest because I didn't open it right then. LOL

OMGosh...I totally forgot today is opening day! I sat down with my latte and muffins for a quick breakfast and my usual first glance on PAO and bingo!

I’ve taken photos but the one of the actual goodies is blurry so I’ll stage that again soon.

CherylH, my amazing Secret Sister...you really nailed it! My Nuvo goodies (non of which I have!!!) are fabulous and I can’t wait to play with them. The pens, paper (gorgeous) and your soon to be tried out handmade yummies are so thoughtful.

Back soon with a photo of Cheryl’s cornucopia of happiness.

So glad you like it Farley. The coffee spoons are vegan chocolate. I wanted to include a note but had to get to the P.O. by deadline (lol)! Have fun :)

Cheryl you’re fantastic finding all vegan chocolate! My son just eyed the spoons. LOL

So here’s my exciting collection of gifts.


Cheryl thank you so much for these delightful edibles and the art supplies. I am truly thrilled with them. I need to get to my cooking for tomorrow’s birthday party for my husband but I may have to at least sneak some swipes of these glitter pens.

Debi! What a great gift box!
Layered stamps, skyline die cuts of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Seattle, skyline stamps, origami papers, lovely Christmas papers & chipboard, layered stickers, mustache washi tape (you shouldn’t have!), the gorgeous E&V Spice Market collection, a photo book of our adventures at 2017 Re(create), chocolate (wow, did that disappear quickly!), Cape Hatteras blend coffee, and a framed photo to treasure. I know I’m forgetting something.
Thank you thank you!!
